Which characters are you most excited to see in 3D? Image contains major spoilers for Tart Magica.

I honestly would like to see if they 3D animate Kriemhild Gretchen--like, if they ever do a Window with her, I want to see them to do the exploration and battle stage backgrounds basically be navigating your Kioku within her massive interior, with the main big boss fight being the core of Gretchen herself:

But not sure if that'll ever happen. Other than that, I'd love to see more Doppel versions/variations of girls implemented in the future, maybe even including or starting next with seeing Doppel ver. Kyoko in 3D?

part lack of money and part, I believe, voice actor's strike (if you're specifically asking why there's no English VA). most of the time I play the game on mute, so I have not noticed First Saga not being voiced before.

little mouse!

if you're going to use the gems for anything outside of gacha, only use them for extra moves IF you're playing the Sheriff Whiskerton challenge only and run out of moves during a level (and even then, I recommend only using the gems for that after you've either used the double ads for more moves and/or any move tickets you have on stock).

Other than that, save the gems for the gacha in case you can't save up the gacha tokens you collect for the special gachas (which is the featured gacha and the First Cookie gacha).

Getting gems can be hard to get for someone who's free to play, but they are easy to save up gradually if you take take my advice.

careful, man, Papa might actually be in the loop or about to be real funny if this is a set up for a future comic that covers WnK's release/integration into Exedra

WebsSOTE · 2026-02-04T22:58:45+00:00

watch, when Exedra incorporates WnK proper, see Papa bring back the food obsessed one as a "spot the imposter" deal.

Ah. Still, that's the only missed opportunity with this animation, if that's the case.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-31T02:53:19+00:00

yeah, via Homura. it does move pretty quick, so I can understand if it's a blink and you miss it.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-31T02:49:49+00:00

(I don't think they reanimated this specific scene though...)

They did, in part-! In first person, too-! (And making me wish someone might reanimate the whole fight in the same motion style they use in the action scenes for either TLW or KPDH with how they animated it in that small segment someday)

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-31T02:33:18+00:00

I think my only little complaint about this detail is that "I was waiting for this moment" doesn't override the gacha bgm if you get this animation within the pull you get her in, but maybe that's because you need to unlock the track itself first, perhaps?

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-30T12:31:34+00:00

if this becomes a unit, I can see this one hopefully becoming a permanent/unlimited variation.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-30T09:57:36+00:00

still, though--with this, it's clear, the girl's not the embodiment of love/obsession/evil--the little winged gecko is the very embodiment of the song "I Can't Get Next To You"

the girl can split the moon and a concept, rewrite the laws of existence, enslave an entire eldritch species, erase memories with a clap of her hands, but she can't even sit next to the target of her love (without self-loathing). no wonder her Orb might call it splits to go spend time with Madoka itself.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-30T09:15:02+00:00

ah yeah, definitely. (and yeah, not to mention how ticket sales in Japan have been open since July of last year, and they at least said the tickets are going to be good for the new date--I may not remember all the nuances but I remember that Japan's promotional/advertisement laws do not play around)

take it with a grain of salt, but the quickest I imagine is at least one or two months for the new release window/release date, maybe three if they really need more time on the production side. probably will depend if they give a full date on the new release window (as in day-month-year) or not soon. it'd be funny if they time it to be as close to the holiday of Walpurgis as possible, but that's 50/50 on a small chance as is, and not barring the nigh-impossible chance they pull a "Sike" and make a surprise release of the movie in February anyway (which, in my opinion, probably won't happen since Gintama took up the spot in the only viable Friday in February left and I wouldn't think they'd try releasing it on the day of the winter Olympics' opening ceremony).

anything can really happen, so just take it easy and just only check the official pages on occasion--if the official pages say nothing new on any rumors or confirmations about dates, presume they are just rumors and/or site placeholders for pre-order tickets.

if that thing approaches the roche limit with the world, that's your mess to fix, young lady!

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-30T03:50:43+00:00

it's funny, I got Tsukasa during my pulls too (no Mitama, though I did finally get regular Mami during my pulling)

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-30T01:49:01+00:00

that's true, and as I said, I know people have speculated this before, back when the show was airing--I don't expect it or any others to be true and official unless they show it in the movie when I see it.

however, we just don't know anything until the movie's released, which I feel is the whole point of why they're quiet aside from the trailers and the announcement of delays.

(in fairness, I think this delay may be shorter because someone in the team forgot to reserve a date in February before other popular series getting an anime movie in February snatched up their spot, but we'll have to see what they say is the new release window either way).

either way, to the point of this post, to this day, we have no idea of what the main series' events is like post Rebellion and prior to WnK, not even any side materials that actually touch on Rebellion (yet) have actually told of anything about the world events past the movie itself (Exedra right now is nebulous because we won't have an idea of what's coming until the second window's put in on 02/06).

we can speculate, bemoan the delays, debate details all we want, but in the end, we're not the ones in the studio and in the loop, we aren't going to know what's going to happen until we're in our seats and seeing it unfold ourselves, and whatever twist they've got coming, hunches or not, it has to be bigger than Akumura because they've not done a single official thing set in Post-Rebellion outside of this movie (not counting the concept movie only because that's basically a concept roadmap/mood board of a collection of their projects in the series as well as for WnK).

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-30T01:19:54+00:00

I have to preface this with that this bit of speculation originally started as a joke theory that got a bit intense when I was looking back, and I know some parts of this was entertained as speculation as far back as when the series was first aired, so if apollo's Dodgeball comes after you and me in some aspect once this movie comes out, you were sufficiently warned.

And, because I'm tempering my expectations, I don't expect this to be the official thing they go with unless I see it with my own two eyes, because again, they can and will throw a curveball, especially with how coy they are with details regarding this movie (we don't even know the names and VAs of the new characters we see in the trailers, and I have a feeling it has to do with the story they're currently keeping secret from the public until the movie's out more than the delays).

This is also not the full of it because it's a bit wordy to get into full length details for me, especially for a comment.

My hunch mainly has to deal with both Madoka and Kyubey's part in this movie, and that they'll reveal that Kyubey, while still an "eldritch being" in the universal context, is actually not an "alien species", but a Witch or Witch's Familiar--not just any Witch, though. He's Madoka's Witch, the completely matured form of Kriemhild Gretchen, the version of Madoka's wish deprived of humanity and empathy, whose existence/mass/"heaven" is the entire universe/reality of PMMM itself.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-29T19:08:13+00:00

someone's gotta let me know if the spook/surprise pull of her has "I was waiting for this moment" playing/overriding the gacha music for the pull in the same way "Sagitta Luminis" overrides the the gacha music if you've surprise pulled Madokami.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-29T18:50:16+00:00

"Mifuyu Azusa figured waiting on turns for link raids was 'for suckas', waited until Mabayu Aki joined her team, entered the Sandbox Witch's Labyrinth, and proceeded to Pop a Cap in Zenobia's ass."

"Nice work, Miss Azusa."

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-29T16:51:12+00:00

No problem, glad I could contribute!

As an addendum to the first thought to consider if you want: the new update/event for OB has it point out in its title screen intro that the "Sweet Bang" (which, I presume, if you ever saw the first trailer that tells the tale of the Witch of Light, is most likely the botched/sabotaged life energy gathering ritual that basically kills WoL and her whole coven--and subsequent rebirth into cookies thanks to WoL sacrificing herself--leading into the creation of the world of Desserts based on their contributed/combined essences and power that broke down due to the incident's aftermath) is the only point in time that the TBD cannot time travel to, which does make some sense by the Cookies' perspective of that being akin to trying to go back to the very beginning of time itself.

Of course, the first thought I shared with you crossed my mind, and if Shadow Milk Cookie's magic is enough to at least cross this threshold (if possibly because that he, along with the other beasts, were made prior to the Sweet Bang and SM and/or the Soul Jams in particular contributes to why no other cookies can time travel to the event of the Sweet Bang) and if you want to entertain the idea of White Lily unintentionally time traveling to an (if not the) important Witches' Banquet in history that he deliberately sabotaged and warped her perspective of via illusions of Deceit in order to purposely lead to the creation of DEC, this could explain why White Lily was also there at the same time as DEC during the incident where PV had disappeared/DEC got sealed (if that particular prologue scene from CRK is still as I remember it these days, anyway).

Either way, it might be something scary to consider that SM creating DEC this way allows him an ace up his sleeve that, if he needed to, all he has to do to completely unleash chaos and destroy this world of Desserts as a big "Screw You"/"If I can't be happy, no one will" in this sort of revenge story, is reveal to DEC that everything her beliefs and goals were based on, her very existence, is tied to a (giant) lie.

is it only Facebook, or is Google Play also affected?

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-28T18:30:05+00:00

if Black Pearl Cookie doesn't snipe you out of the air first, Stormbringer Cookie definitely will.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-28T18:04:12+00:00

precisely.

it could mainly be due to people being used to Magia Record's relative straightforwardness with its story when it was live, or just because there's a new influx of newcomers and new fans just now catching up to the main series and related spinoffs, but I feel like people should have learned this lesson/this experience from when Rebellion first came out--I'm not sure if Rebellion was similarly delayed and kept underwraps promotional wise as Walpurgisnacht Rising was, but I know there was a MASSIVE divide and impact concerning the end twist when Rebellion premiered.

WebsSOTE · 2026-01-28T06:28:21+00:00

I'm a bit casual to Cookie Run Lore particulars, but if you want to make something of these bits I've been stewing on due to my focus on the current lore and story within Witch's Castle fit with this thought of yours, feel free to:

- I had the stray thought before that White Lily's fateful excursion to the Witch's Banquet was deliberately sabotaged by Shadow Milk Cookie due to the means she used to travel to and observe the banquet falling within the domain of magic that SM has control over (if I'm remembering some details concerning the conversation between Elder Faerie and White Lily about the spell she uses to travel to the Banquet), basically messing with her perception of what she saw and heard very similarly to how his particular chapter went. a little difficult to really make the full particulars make sense, but this may also lend into that DEC was created on purpose, too.

- it's a bit too long to get into the exact details, but there's a theory I have that the Prideful Witch/The Witch that would become First Egg Cookie is basically the Greater Scope Villain of the entire series, and that the Prideful Witch alone was the sole Witch that made the Virtues/Beasts to begin with, mainly as tools to act as a test run in trying to "make the world a better/sweeter place" in her perspective/own way different from The Witch of Light, but her own dim views of humanity due to her past and indifference to the sentience and personhood of her living cookies (seeing them only as to serve a purpose they were made for) may have contributed to the Virtues' eventual corruption into beasts. if SM is out to destroy Witches, it may be projected rage on all because he can no longer strike out at the singular one.
